I know this is an old video, but for those who are interested, the TUx is capable of doing almost everything: two up long distance touring (Airhawk cushions required!), forest road adventuring, commuting, and just exploring. She works best if you let her pick the pace, as trying to push her too fast is just not fun. Sit back, take in the scenery, enjoy the ride! But as long as you don’t mind hanging out in the slow lane she’s fine. She will run all day long at 60mph, sipping gas at 80 mpg while doing so. I have had mine for over a decade, and she is still going strong, without ever needing anything more than easy maintenance. She still has her original chain after40,000 miles!

I have a 2015 tu250x bought new. I have been ridding since 1957. I'm 77 years old and still ridding and smiling. My longest trip on it was 320 miles in a day from charleston sc to Wilmington nc to charleston. Great ride. I have an air hawk seat cover and small windshield.

One of the best looking bikes on the market. Please release this with a 500 or 650 engine!

I have a 2017 I got used for $3100 and had 660 miles. Absolutely love the bike. Traveled through multiple states and just hit 10,000 miles.

You're going to like this bike, more fun than most any big bike I've ridden. Keep making the videos if you can!

Awesome Video. Great job. I'm seriously thinking to have this bike soon.

I just picked up a one owner 2015 Suzuki tu250x with less than 200 miles on it the other day for $2600. Killer deal! Thanks for the review!

Hi! I'm about to get my first bike and def looking at the 250x! Thanks for the review, and good job editing :) Looking forward to more updates!

Good video brother! I've had my 2009 tux for a few years now and I love it. I made a fun and light cafe out of her with the 16/41 gear set up. I like to ride over 60 so the 16/41 really makes that riding much more comfortable, and really boosts the gas mileage ;). Happy trails!

It can't be done better than you did Amazing !

Bought one a few days ago and I really love it! Was worried it would be too small for me since im 187cm / 6f 2" but im super comfortable on it.

What many people do know about the suzuki tu250x is by the sight glass for checking your oil level out. Is a black circle with the words kick starter.

I just laid down a deposit on this same bike, a 2011 with 4000 miles. I am returning rider having not ridden for over 40 years so I needed something basic and I believe this will be great. Just completed the basic MSF class. Not planning on hitting the freeways anytime soon...just around town and an empty parking lot to practice. Thanks for posting this video.

Nice to see someone else who can appreciate a tiddler. There's something fun about having just what you need, and having such a light, flickable bike. For mods, I think I'd go wit a flyscreen that will get some wind off your chest, but not right onto your face. That gets noisy. Then, hand guards, to open up the seasons you can ride in a little. (thought you seem to be in a warm climate, having made this video in February...) Mirror extenders, seems like a good idea too. I'd probably just leave the 15T front sprocket on, so you don't lose acceleration, unless you're on the highway a LOT. Just take it easy at 65 or so. Doesn't really make a difference in how fast you get somewhere, unless you're riding for hours and hours. Get a tank bag or backpack for everyday riding and a tail bag for touring. Skip the saddlebags. They stick out the sides and look pretty dumb. How about an update?

Nice bike 😁 My first was a 80cc 2 stroke pint sized version of this one.

great job on the video! thx, mister-- :D

I own this bike. Great first bike for me. Taking my road test on it soon and it's so easy to maneuver. I don't trust it on the freeway, the wind will wip you around a bit with it being so light. I love the bike but I'm ready for something bigger already.

Did you have to get the valves adjusted with the first service? If so what was the results?

Just bought this same model and year off of FB marketplace for 2,000 with less than 5,000 miles. I didn't realize i was getting that good of a deal!

Can you have a guard for the chain?

Ever ride a Suzuki RV200 VanVan? I put 5000 miles on my 2017. The tank is only 1.7 gallons but I get about 80 miles per gallon. Thinking of going to the Suzuki tu250. Thank you for a splendid video enjoyable to watch.

Yeah I read atgat from the magazine also

I traded in the burgman 400 and bought a 17 street glide special. But I still have a my zuma 125 lol

I got a Suzuki tu250x for $3,225 zero miles, brand new Had it for 2 1/2 months and got 1,234.6 miles on it. It fun to ride on back roads.nothing. Still have it. It's got 1,394 miles on it. It's a great and fun bike to ride.

I say leave it like it is but maybe a cafe windscreen or some windscreen

Hey people I just found a cheap tu250x.are they really that good or you just saying as you got one? I like the look let me know it be grate🖒

I just got the same bike same year. 680 miles. $2100...how bout that!!!

at 6:45 you begin talking about your confidence in your brakes. My rear drum brake on my TU250X is a joke. I have to rely nearly 100% on my front brake. And my bike was brand new.

I'm a Sasquatch from the Appalachian foothills, about 7'3'' and 500 lbs. Would this bike be too small for me?

Got a 2013 TU250x a few months ago. My first bike. Love it, but the one thing that bothers me is how quickly I have to shirt from 1st to 2nd, and even 2nd to 3rd. I know that switching to a 16t front sprocket would help this slightly, but haven't done that. Do you find that you are shifting all the time as well, especially at the lower speeds?

What are the dimensions of the tank? What sort of real estate is there for a tank bag?

I'm getting a 2016 tomorrow, just over 2k Miles for $2600 out the door

i have a burgman 400 a scooter with lots of power and i average 65 mpg. its like a mini gold wing.

Dammit, imma have to find a good used one.

I'm kinda new to this what does fuel injected mean

I am 6'3 315, big linebacker looking dude. Will this bike be ridable for me?

i get mine 2016 250x with 180 mil for 2800$ =)

Its so lame that this bike is not available in California

How tall are you? Would this be a good bike for a 6 ft tall male ?

Looks cramped for a taller rider, needs forward controls.
